Popis:	Planktons are microscopic life dwelling in water, drifting with water currents and floating freely in epilimnion due to limited locomotion. Planktons are further classified as Phytoplanktons which are the micro flora and Zooplankton including micro fauna (APHA, 1985). Phytoplanktons are the primary producers in any aquatic ecosystem. They act as food source for all the other secondary consumers in aquatic ecosystem. According to Benarjee and Narasimha(2013) phytoplanktons not only serve as food for aquatic animal but also play an important role in maintaining the biological balance and quality of water.
